\alias{errorBars}
\title{Draw error bars on a plot}
\description{
Draw error bars at x from upper to lower. If \code{horizontal = FALSE} (default)
bars are drawn vertically, otherwise horizontally.
}
\usage{
errorBars(x, upper, lower, width = 0.1, code = 3, angle = 90, horizontal = FALSE, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{A vector of values where the bars must be drawn.}
\item{upper}{A vector of upper values where the bars must end.}
\item{lower}{A vector of lower values where the bars must start.}
\item{width}{A value specifying the width of the end-point segment.}
\item{code}{An integer code specifying the kind of arrows to be drawn. For details see \code{\link[graphics]{arrows}}.}
\item{angle}{A value specifying the angle at the arrow edge. For details see \code{\link[graphics]{arrows}}.}
\item{horizontal}{A logical specifying if bars should be drawn vertically (default) or horizontally.}
\item{\dots}{Further arguments are passed to \code{\link[graphics]{arrows}}.}
